New Range Rover Sport SV Edition Two arrives

Range Rover has announced it will offer a new 2025 Range Rover Sport SV Edition Two in Australia that will be priced from $359,715 plus on-roads.

The special high-end Rangie will begin arriving in Australia early next year.

Following on from the 2024 Range Rover Sport SV Edition One that was priced from $360,800 (plus ORCs), the new flagship high-performance SUV special will be available Down Under in four curated specifications that are painted Blue Nebula Matte, Ligurian Black Gloss, Marl Grey Gloss and Sunrise Copper Satin.

Each flavour is said to receive extra carbon-fibre accents, with special SV Edition Two branding on the front splitter, centre console, kickplates and puddle lamps.

Choose the Blue Nebula specification and designers have paired the colour-shifting hue with a Satin exterior carbon-fibre pack, a painted carbon-fibre bonnet, 23-inch forged alloy wheels, Nebula blue callipers and SV Performance seats finished in Light Cloud and Ebony Windsor leather.

The Marl Grey Gloss coloured Range Rover Sport SV gets a glossier exterior carbon-fibre pack, an exposed carbon bonnet, 23-inch Carbon Gloss wheels with copper-coloured brake callipers and Rosewood and Ebony Windsor leather seats.

Next, the Sunrise Copper Satin sports the Satin Carbon Twill exterior pack, a painted carbon-fibre bonnet, 23-inch forged black alloy wheels, red callipers and Ebony Windsor leather seats.

The last curated special edition is the Ligurian Black Gloss painted car that combines the Satin Carbon Twill pack with an exposed carbon-fibre bonnet, 23-inch carbon-gloss wheels, Nano Yellow brakes and vegan-friendly fabric seats.

Speaking of seats, it's worth pointing out that every SV Edition Two comes with the innovative heated, cooled, massage, 16-way adjustable Body and Soul Seats (BASS) that provide for a more immersive way to listen to music and audio.

Buyers of each car can also down-size the big wheels to only fractionally smaller 22-inch rims, plus opt for less (or more) garish brake calliper colours.

Other options include changing the exterior carbon pack or ordering a body-coloured roof.

Under the bonnet the standard car's already unhinged twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre V8 mild-hybrid carries over that can produce an incredible 467kW and 750Nm (or up to 800Nm in launch mode) that helps the Range Rover Sport SV hit 100km/h from standstill in just 3.8 seconds, before topping out at an eye-watering 290km/h.

Also standard is the SUV-maker's pioneering 6D suspension system that does without anti-roll bars and uses interlinked dampers to hydraulically dial-out both body roll while cornering and pitch under acceleration and braking.

It does all this, claims Range Rover, without ruining the dual-chamber air suspension's supple ride comfort.

Back when it was launched, engineers claimed that the 2.5 tonne-plus Range Rover Sport SV could generate lateral cornering forces of up to 1.1g on its standard all-season tyres – a figure that much lighter sports cars like the track-focused Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 claims.
